Rewind 2012: No. 10 - Brother arrested in triple homicide

Grigoriy Bukhantsov is charged with 3 counts of murder

RANCHO CORDOVA, Calif. -- On Oct. 23, Denis Bukhantsov came home to find his wife and two of his children dead inside their Rancho Cordova home. The next morning, his brother, Grigoriy Bukhantsov, would be arrested in connection with the triple homicide.

Jason Ramos, spokesman for the Sacramento County Sheriff's Department, described the manner of the attack as a "sharp force trauma" such as a "stab, slashing, slicing." He said there was no forced entry into the home.

Denis and wife Alina were married at the Bethany Slavic Missionary Church just a few months after announcing their engagement in 2008.

"That family was so loving. They were always holding hands at church. They were always so much in love. She always had a smile on her face," family friend Svetlana Murza said.

The sole survivor of the attack was the couple's 6-month-old boy, Marc.

"(Mark) ... he's alive," Denis Bukhantsov said at a news conference. "I will try to take care of him as best as I can. (Alina) was a great mom."
